Situé au 5e étage de l’Hôtel Nelligan se trouve une terrasse sur le toit accueillant les invités et les locaux pour se détendre, manger, siroter et admirer les vues du Vieux-Port. Incarnant l’élégance urbaine nichée dans une architecture intemporelle, l’espace repensé est conçu pour rehausser votre été avec des cocktails signature, un menu élaboré et une atmosphère décontractée du matin au soir, avec des soirées DJ le week-end.
La Terrasse Nelligan offre un cadre sur le toit avec une vue magnifique sur le Vieux Port, une terrasse belle et une ambiance a la fois dynamique et détendue, ideale pour profiter du coucher du soleil et passer une soirée entre amis. Les cocktails et les boissons sont souvent salués pour leur créativité et leur qualité, tandis que le menu propose des plats d'inspiration méditerranéenne et des fruits de mer frais qui ont plu à de nombreux visiteurs, même si certains trouvent certains plats un peu chers ou parfois d'exécution inégale. Le service est décrit comme attentif et sympathique lorsque le personnel est disponible, avec des retours positifs sur une assistance rapide et efficace, mais quelques moments de service plus lent apparaissent durant les périodes d'affluence. Dans l'ensemble, Terrasse Nelligan est souvent présente comme une adresse incontournable pour admirer la vue, déguster de bons cocktails et profiter d'une expérience de terrasse mémorable à Montréal.
Terrasse Nelligan was okay, the food was a little bland & their water is lukewarm. The service was good, but very slow. My table ordered the oysters (very good, 7.5/10) the tuna tartare (7/10), truffle parm fries (8/10), the katsu chicken sando (very dry, chicken tastes like frozen food, it wasn't katsu it was nuggets, sauce is only on top so the bread is very dry & it's not very pleasant when you try to eat it; 4/10), the salade niçoise (5/10, the tuna tasted weird, the rest didn't really taste like anything) & finally the shrimp bao (6/10). As for the drinks we had strawberry mojitos, they were good. Overall, it was an ok experience, I wouldn't recommend this place for their food, but it's a nice spot for pictures.
Nice for a few cocktails during the week 4ish. The food is not as good as the view but OK. Saturday brunch has a DJ that creates a lively atmosphere but is actually too loud to talk to the people you are with.

Nelligan Terrace is a top spot if you're looking for lively energy, stylish crowds, & stunning rooftop views. The atmosphere here is what really makes it: a retractable awning offers comfort whether you're enjoying the sun or hiding from a surprise rain shower, & the music is always popping, setting a vibrant tone without overwhelming conversation. It draws a young, attractive crowd, making it feel like a social scene worth checking out.
The food, however, is a mixed bag. The ceviche is definitely not what you'd expect if you're used to the bright, citrus-forward flavors of Mexican-style ceviche-it leans in a more neutral, subtle direction that might not satisfy traditional ceviche fans. The oysters are on the smaller side, but they pack solid flavor for their size. Skip the hummus-bland & forgettable. The chicken katsu sandwich is more of a classic fried chicken sandwich than a true katsu, but it's still tasty. The French fries are well-executed, crispy & seasoned just right, & the roasted butternut squash is a surprisingly solid choice if you're looking for a comforting side.
Drinks are another strong point here-well-balanced & thoughtfully made, perfect for enjoying while taking in the rooftop ambiance.
Overall, Nelligan Terrace is more about the experience & the setting than it is a foodie destination. That said, a few menu hits & good drinks keep it worth the visit. Just be sure to make a reservation-the place fills up quickly, & it's not one you'll want to miss.
We had the pleasure of being welcomed by one of their managers, Benoit, who was incredibly attentive & showed a keen eye for detail. You can tell he's hardworking. We were also served by Eduard, who was just as kind & meticulous. In short, they made our night.
Yanis & henry are top notch! Amazing service & brings alot of fun in our experience. Only thing I have to say that was disappointing was the cheese platter. The price for 6 slices of cheese was outrageous & I thought someone had eaten off our plate but no was just like that. Everything else was amazing but Yanis & Henry were definitely our favorite part of the experience.
Audrey is an excellent waitress, the ambiance is beautiful & the views are immaculate. Somehow the food & drinks were still the highlight of the evening! I highly recommend spending the evening at the rooftop bar! They accommodated our large party perfectly.
I've been coming to this terrasse for years now & always have an enjoyable time. The drinks are creative & well-made, & while the food portions are on the smaller side, the quality is consistently good.
Unfortunately, on our last visit, the experience was disappointing. The terrasse was clearly overbooked, with tables packed so tightly together that we had to physically move our table just to get to the washroom. We had no privacy whatsoever, & it was difficult to maintain a conversation without being distracted by the neighbouring tables' conversations, given the close proximity-barely even an arm's length away. The overall guest experience definitely suffered as a result. Space optimization is important, but not at the expense of guests' comfort & enjoyment.
Ambiance is great.. a rooftop terrace is always a treat. Food & drinks were on point... would love to come back. I suspect it might be a very busy spot on weekends & evenings. We came for a quick lunch. Lobster rolls were 👌🏾

We had a wonderful brunch on the terrace, which offered a beautiful view of old Montreal & a peaceful atmosphere. The staff were super nice, & the service struck a perfect balance - relaxed yet efficient.
The food was delicious, full of flavor & beautifully presented. It was a truly relaxing experience & a perfect way to start off a Sunday.
We'll definitely be coming back - this place is an absolute gem.
While it was cold on the patio ( can't control the weather ) the food & service were fantastic. Will visit this again in the summer when the evenings are warmer. Great place.
